Authorities in Depok demolished 350 illegal structures at Cisalak Market to clear public utility land following community complaints about blocked roads and drainage. Officials noted that vendors had received three warning letters and a one-week grace period prior to the enforcement action. To assist displaced traders, the city government offered space within the Cisalak Market UPT building.

However, vendors have begun returning to sidewalks and roadsides, citing high rental costs and low foot traffic in the official relocation areas. In response, the Depok Department of Trade and Industry is attempting to simplify the administrative process for legal placement, offering installment plans to help ease the financial burden on small-scale traders.
